GONE BY ONE"
A Direful Avalanche in Every
Known Zone,
And Thousands of People Crushed by
Its PitiIess Power.

Far up the dizzy Alpine heights,
above the line of perpetual frost,
where the brilliant glitter of the snow
under the midday sun seems only to
intensity the cold, the Ice King would
seem 10 hold mdisputed swar. But
even here there is at times little hui
midity in the atmosphere Of the more
sheltered hooks.
The dry snow soltens little, the
wind catches il up and losses it about,
and the star like flakes are rolled into
tiny ball that the footsteps of child
might easily crush. Then comes the
rude blast from the mountain top and
drives the ball up and down the high
valley aud across the vast trackless
fields of snow and ice. 1t gathers re
and strength at every turn; huge rocky
bouiders and mountains of ice are i'm
bedded in the now slowlv-moving
avalanche, which sooner or later de-
sccnds with frightful velocity to the
valley below.
The luckless village in its pathway
is doomed! The air IL thick with the
falling snow! An awful rush! A
roar reverberates through the noun
tains, and the little Swiss hamlet is
swept away!
The foregoing is so applicable that
we use it as an illustration. AS the
wind catches up the snow particles on
the mountain tops so the heart catches
mp the blood as it passes from the Kid
news and other organs, and sends 1t
coursing through the system. AS 1t
rusf es along it drops the uri acid that
the unhealthy kidneys have left IN the
blood in the form OF insoluble crys-
tails, causing enlargement of the joints
and intense information in the system
which is often called acute rheumatism.
Eventually the Joints enlarged bv these
CRYSTALS become stiff and painful. II
these crystals are dropped in the liver
thev are called gallstones, il in the
kidneys gravel, if in the bladder cal
culus or stone.
If this uric acid or kidney poison
remains in solution in the blood 1t
circulates throughout the system,
causing irritation, which produces, &C
cording to the location of the irrita-
ton pneumonia, consumption, hack
ing cough, heart disease, inflanations
and fevers, skin disorders, paralysis,
apoplexy, and makes the system sus-
ceptible to colds, chills, aud oil the
other common disorders of which
ur acid is the principal cause.
The little child upon the mountain
top can crush in it's tiny hand the first
formation of The rushing avalanche.
So, too. the calamitous results noted
can be as readily prevented II the
right means arc used at the right
time,
"But how?" our readers may ask.
Listen and we will tell you. Ii is q
fact of medical science that the kid
news are the chief blood purifiers Of
the system; the chief blood poisoner is
uric acid which the kidneys alone can
expel. II the thousand little hair-like
sewer tubes of the kidneys, through
which the entire blood supply passes
the same as through the heart, and
diseased they cannot separate and ex-
pei this poisonous waste matter from
the blood.
Now, as another matter Of scientific
tact. disease of these little sewer tubes
il more common than Of any other
delicate part of the body, aud IL Is be-
cause Werncr's safe cure, gentle and
natural in its action, has such " onder-
full power in preventing and curing
disease of these all-important tubes
that it is recognized as great scien-
tifc sperific-a power possessed by no
other such remedy on earth. When the
kidneys, the only blood purifying or
gans, become inactive and diseased,
any disorder to which the system is
most liable may he expected. :,
Then it is that trouble begins, and
the doctors fail miserably because they
can only treat the effects the
cause is beyond their powerl Hence
II is that the proprietors of
Warnc';s safe cure claim 10 cure so
many apparently different diseases-it
and it alone reaches and cures the
cause. and then, of course, the effects
disappear!
We incline to the belief that their
theory is correct and so recognized
by scientists who have given the sub
ject much study.
This frightful disorder is dcpopu-
lating our homes faster than we are
aware OF. Like the avalanche of the
mountain, it is causing the death Of
all with whom it comes in contact. 1t
does not sweep away an entire viii
lagc or hamlet at once, but one by one
the people succomb to its pitiless pow
err. The final, or terminating, cause
may be given another name and be so
treated by various experts" but the
cause of all these effects, how many So
ever they may be. is the same, and for
